Kelly Hoppen Living Room

It is
impossible to envision what Kelly Hoppen's home might look like
without picturing a few of the elements with which she is
inextricably associated: there will be artfully arranged objets in
multiples; there will be an East-meets-West reference, a Buddha
perhaps. And there will be taupe. Lots of taupe. It doesn't take me
long to tick each of these off my mental list when I visit her
extraordinary new house, although they are by no means its most
striking features.

Custom-made lights, created in collaboration with
Robert Clift, help define the spaces in Kelly's new open-plan
house. Silk and blown glass lights hang in the
living room.
